Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Nordic Ware Microwave 2 Cavity Egg Poacher
Customer Review: The Key Here is the WATTAGE of YOUR Oven
Summary: 4 Stars
I gave it 4 stars because:
(1) The instructions aren't on the product itself.
(2) I still prefer poached eggs on the stove.
However, perhaps this will help those of you struggling with why the darn thing won't work for YOU:
(1) Most instructions are written for 700 watt microwaves.
(2) Your microwave is likely not 700 watts if your results are bad. (Assuming you follow the other instructions re water, piercing the yolk, etc.)
(3) If you don't know the wattage of your oven, use this chart -- http://www.microwavecookingforone.com/Charts/Wattage.html -- and a cup of water to determine your wattage.
(4) Once you have your wattage, use this chart -- http://www.microwavecookingforone.com/Charts/ChartsFrom700.html -- and select YOUR oven's wattage then go to that chart to determine the correct cooking time for you.
For example, my oven is 1100 watts (I cheated and looked at the manual, but I should boil water now and again in case it changes):
Step 1 -- I go to the chart for 1100 watt conversion from 700 watt here -- http://www.microwavecookingforone.com/Charts/Chart1100.html.
Step 2 -- On the packaging AND on the company website for this product, they say that two eggs should be 1 minute 15 seconds. I look for 1 minute 15 seconds and find that I should actually cook them in MY microwave for 48 seconds.
Step 3 -- I follow the rest of the instructions (1/2 teaspoon of water per egg, pierce the yolk once, close the device firmly, leave it shut for at least 30 seconds or more afterward so the whites will cook completely), then voila, perfect poached eggs (except, yes, the bottoms are rounded).
My microwave has a rotating glass plate, so your results may vary unless you have one of those or you invest in one of the micro-go-round type products. I suspect that is what makes both eggs cook evenly.
Hope that helps. Heck, for $2.00, this little thing works like a charm.
(And no, I don't work for NordicWare!)
Description of Nordic Ware Microwave 2 Cavity Egg Poacher
For a quick breakfast poach 1-2 eggs in minutes with this egg poacher. The non-stick surface allows for easy cooking and cleaning.Use this simple microwave cooker to take the fuss out of poaching eggs. Place 1/2 teaspoon of water in each 3-inch cup. Add a cracked egg to each cup and pierce yolks lightly. Snap lid closed and microwave to taste. (Cooking times vary depending on the microwave's power.) Let stand a minute or two to finish cooking. Open lid and serve gold-and-white poached eggs on toasted English muffins, over hash, or with potato pancakes. The 7-1/2-inch poacher, made of hard plastic, should be hand washed. --Fred Brack
